Answer:

q = \frac{8}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of intersection (3, 1 ) is the solution to both equations

Using

y = qx - 7 and substituting x = 3, y = 1

1 = 3q - 7 ( add 7 to both sides )

8 = 3q ( divide both sides by 3 )

\frac{8}{3} = q

What is the slope of the line?
meriva
The slope of the line can be defined as y = mx + b, where m is the slope
To find the slope, one will need to use the expression Δy/Δx (y final - y initial)/(x final - x initial)
For this problem, that equals 1/3

Now we will use the point slope form
(y - y initial) = m (x - x initial):

y + 1 = 1/3 (x - 2)

y = 1/3x - 5/3

X - 7 = 13 - x help asap plz
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 7 = 13 - x

Step 1 : Collect like terms and simplify

x + x = 13 + 7 \\ 2x = 20

Step 2 : Divide both sides of the equation by 2

\frac{2x}{2}  =  \frac{20}{2}

Step 3 : Simplify by cross cancellation of common term : 2

x = 10
